Process Computing
| Module name | Process Computing |
|---|---|
| Type of module | Selectable mandatory module |
| Learning results, competencies, qualification goals | The students should be able to classify the structure and principle of operation of process computer systems, the hardware and software components should be classified and evaluated and the control capabilities should be derived through the use of a process computer. Furthermore, the students should be in a position to evaluate and classify the possibilities for modeling processes that have to be regulated and controlled and their mathematical descriptions. Learning results with regard to the objectives of the course of study: - Gaining a deeper knowledge about the specific electrical fundamentals - Acquiring enhanced and applied subject-specific basics - Identifying and classifying complex electro-technical and interdisciplinary tasks - Being confident in the ability to apply and evaluate analytical methods - Being able to create and evaluate solving methods independently - Gaining important and profound experience in the area of practical technical skills and engineering activities - Working and researching in national and international contexts |
